Response: Photographing the Beginning of the Civil Rights Movement

I feels interesting by looking at the photographs that taken by both photographers. But if you ask me which one I like the most, I would say is the Swiss -born photographer Robert Frank. Because we can see he tried to to using his photos to the American society in that time period which is 1950’s. Even though there some photos is kind of fizz, but it still can tell the story behind it or the thing that he want express out. The one photo I like the most is Trolley, New Orleans, 1955 from The American. Because we can see through this photo to know there many people or many or the people are been racism in that time period, Back people were siting on the back of the bus. Also, we ca get the sense of the how mean of the White people were, for example the woman sat in the middle of the bus, and the two black men were looks like very innocent. In addition, I think the photo of Hazel Bryan and Elizabeth Eckford, is very point out the main problem of the racism of that time period. Because there was the white girl was yelling at the black girl that walked in front of her. Overall, I think these photos is so stand out and captured people attention.
